Bud Norris took a liner off the shin on the first pitch of the game.
Mills:
“Going from where our hearts started pumping when he took that ball off the shin and thinking that we were going to really have to piece this one together, to come back and give us those innings that he did, that was pretty special."
Norris, who can now be described as a "gamer:"
“At first I thought it was pretty bad. I really needed to walk around on it and make it feel a little bit better. The adrenaline definitely helped out.”
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
